Executive Commentary on H1 FY2024 Performance

During the first half of FY2024, Urbanise experienced a marginal decline in revenue, amounting to $6.27 million, in contrast to $6.32 million generated in the corresponding period of the prior year. The company increased its license revenue to $5.77 million for H1 FY2024, compared to $5.56 million in H1 FY2023. This growth was driven from increased sales to new and backlog customers, as well as existing customers, which more than compensated for losses from customer churn and temporary reductions in license fees. A comprehensive operational review completed in Q1 FY2024 led to a reduction in operating expenses of $0.7 million or 8% compared to the previous corresponding period. This reduction was achieved through cuts in headcount and overhead costs, contributing to the improvement in operating EBITDA loss to $1.52 million in H1 FY2024 from $2.14 million in H1 FY2023. The Board and Management continued to oversee costs and cash management, while maintaining focus on growth opportunities to uphold Urbanise's position as a market leader in the cloud-based Strata and Facilities sectors.
